You are 28 weeks pregnant.1-3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 Born & Birth stories |

Your baby's crown-to-rump length is approximately 10 inches and the total length of your growing baby is around 15.75 inches. Your baby weighs about 2.4 pounds at this point. Your uterus is a little more than 3 inches above your bellybutton. Your weight gain at this time should be between 17 and 24 pounds.
Blood vessel in the umbilical cord. For several months, the umbilical cord has been the baby's lifeline to the mother. Nourishment is transferred from the mother's blood, through the placenta, and into the umbilical cord to the baby. If the mother ingests any toxic substances, such as drugs or alcohol, the baby receives these as well!
You will probably begin visiting your caregiver once every two weeks. Week 28 is an important week for testing. You will probably be having your glucose tolerance test, an iron level test and if you are Rh negative, you should have an antibody test. The antibody test will determine if you and your baby will have any reactions to each other's blood differences. The glucose test will check for gestational diabetes.
Your baby's brain continues to develop and is now forming the folds and grooves of a fully developed brain. The amount of tissues within the brain also continues to increase in large amounts. The hair that covers your baby's scalp is also getting longer. Your baby is now large enough for presentation to be determined and your doctor might be able to find out if your baby is at risk for being breech. If your baby is breech, don't panic. There is still time for the baby to rotate.

I'm scared of getting too many stretch marks, I'm also nervous about having that 'lived in look', you know what the belly and tit's looking saggy. I'm pretty sure I'll lose the weight I gained exactly 30lbs last pregnancy and I lost 32lbs by the time my baby girl was 2 months old, but its not just about weight with me I really want to be able to wear a two piece without getting stoned :P whenever I tell people this they seem not to understand me; they say 'oh you should be worrying about your babies health not your post pregnancy body, but just because I want to look human doesn't mean I'm not concerned about my little one's health, obviously I care about my little ones that's why I keep both them and myself healthy. Is it so hard to believe that someone wants to be a good mother and a hot mama??!
robbinsnest - 45 minutes ago
Well ladies, I am so tired all the time! Just want to nap on the couch all day! But no, I can't do that like I want to, I have too much laundry and dishes to do, and I home school 4 of my kids. My 14 year old is alot of help though. She said today, Mom, what would you do without me here to carry the laundry for you? Hmmm, don't know, maybe one of the boys would do it for me. Try not to take advantage of her though, she's such a sweetie! Hope all is great with you guys!
excited41stbaby - 57 minutes ago
on another note--- I ran into someone my DH knows the other day... and this is what he says to me, 'Damn, Nick told me you were pregnant but i didn't know you were THAAAAT pregnant.' I just looked at him, rolled my eyes and said thankkkksss..... what a JERK!!
girlkeenah - 1.5 hours ago
same here.. i had the glucose test last tuesday, didn't need to fast but also had a reese cup before the test, didn't know i was getting it. dr sair result would be in in 3 days. haven't heard anything and it's been since the 10th, so i'm assuming all is good.
seuban0 - 1.5 hours ago
Anyone else experiencing the return of morning sickness?? Ugh.
nicki90 - 1.6 hours ago
yea my dr is either supposed to call today (b4 5) or i have to wait till monday
excited41stbaby - 1.6 hours ago
I had my glucose test on wednesday. I thought it was the most disgusting thing EVER!!! Doctor said if i don't hear anything back within a week then I'm good. Haven't heard anything yet.....
nicki90 - 2 hours ago
hey girls i got it from my dr today- but not about my weight they didnt tell me at my last appt that i would be having my sugar test done today- so b4 my appt i went to Mcdonalds lol, and my dr was pissed- but i told her nobody told me i would be having that done today(this was back when they were worried about the U/S not showing the babies heart)and i guess they 4got to tell me - still waiting on the results tho
marinewifeandmom08 - 2.1 hours ago
i was in a B cup before my DS and after i had him and dried up i stayed a C cup. And again they are slightly growing just hope they dont grow to much more. yeah i wanted bigger boobs but with bigger comes saggier.
Mandykat760 - 3.1 hours ago
My goal is to get smaller then my pre-pregnancy body. I was too chunky for my liking. I would love to be 115 again and in shape! Being in shape is the big thing. I want to be the perfect house wife haha. Sound dumb but maybe if I was then I wouldn’t have to work!
angelagloria - 3.2 hours ago
I'M GETTING REAL TIRED OF MY BOOBS OMG. THEY ARE A TRIPPLE D RIGHT NOW. I STARTED OFF AT A 38 D. MAN WITH MY SON I GOT UP TO A TRIPLE F WHILE BREAST FEEDING. THESE THINGS KILL THE BACK LOL
marinewifeandmom08 - 3.2 hours ago
YAY!! Week 28.
excited41stbaby - 3.4 hours ago
ohhhh i know!! I was just thinking the other day that Heidi Klum is my role-model. After 4 kids she doesn't even look like she's had one!! I seriously hope i'm half as lucky. BS- It's good that you got things out in the open with your DH. Once the communication stops, its down hill from there. ohh and 2012 is ok... i kinda wish i would have waited to see it on netflix. but that's just my opinion!!
irishgirl44 - 3.6 hours ago
have you seen heidi Klums figure 5 weeks after having her 4th baby? damn i feel sick! she looks great strutting her stuff down the run way for the victoria secrets fashion show.. boo hooo.. i hope ill get there in 5 weeks ! and she says she has about 20lbs to loose stil. Iam already at 24lbs weight gain!
BabySaunders - 3.6 hours ago
Ya hubby and I had a looonnnnggggg, much needed convo last night about helping. He had the nerve to tell me that he felt like I was bitching at him all the time. I was really confused so I asked what he meant and he said when I tell him what to do around the house. Umm...ya. So NOT me bitching. That's me telling you to clean up your own SHIT! Excuse my language but I was annoyed. But it all ended with some nice BD lol. OTR you made me hungry and I have none of that in my house lol. Cereal it is! I'm in a good mood today. Get to go see 2012 and New Moon, dinner and hanging out with lots of gal pals. Can't wait!
excited41stbaby - 3.6 hours ago
IG- My 'ladies' aren't huge by any means, but are surely alot bigger than what i started out with!! & they are truly driving me nuts! Jane&Ashlee- I'm RIGHT there with you!! Daily chores on top of working 50 hours a week is getting to be wayyyyy too much!! To cook, do dishes,laundry, sweep-mop, dust, toilets and tub, grocery shop AND put it all away!! geeesh. It's just too much, lol!! I praise you women who already have kids that are doing it all. You guys are my heros!! :)
jane81 - 3.7 hours ago
I am tired of making food too. And grocery shopping. And cleaning. And doing the dishes!!!
ashleefern - 3.8 hours ago
I know what all of you mean. I live with my fiance and his parents and they feel the need to use 3 different cups for the same exact drink everyday. It's like just rinse it! And I am the only one who does dishes and cleans the bathroom. I also do all of our laundry plus the towels. They act like they are 90 and incapable of movement. I hate it!
irishgirl44 - 4.1 hours ago
just looked at my belly button its hanging on in there.. has anyones belly button popped out? i just realized that i have a mold in my belly button well now its my tummy.. but i never knew it was in there.. how strange!
irishgirl44 - 4.2 hours ago
i dont seem to have any ladies.. just a few popping vains.. with a nipple.. i was hoping that when i got pregnant i would get boobs finally.. but noooooo. i get all the bad bits of pregnancy but not the boobies.. mmmm
excited41stbaby - 4.3 hours ago
I really need to invest in some new bras. my ladies are popping out all over the place, lol.
irishgirl44 - 4.5 hours ago
haha well i have been buying really big baggy tops in size 16 for a while and wearing my cute dresses as tops! but today i go the tops where you can breast feed and they have cute hidden holes so your nipple can just pop out.. im having great fun lol
2ndtimemommmy - 4.9 hours ago
Your first maternity tops, irish? I haven't fit a normal top in ages.... and I even outgrew some of my maternity tops, and had to get new ones!
irishgirl44 - 5 hours ago
OTR food sounds good. iam so tired to make food.. 7 months is that it now. i hope feb comes fast.. i bought my first maternity tops today. so happy!
excited41stbaby - 5.8 hours ago
OTR- It's so good to see you in such good spirits!!! I know it's a tough situation, but you have all of us :) Oh, i also just watched the Ugly Truth last night.. i thought it was so cute!! I love chick flicks!!! On a side note, i can not believe today is my last day in week 28!! *OMG* It's going to be February before you know it!!!
2ndtimemommmy - 5.9 hours ago
OTR - good to hear from you again. And good thing you don't live here, hospital food is terrible here! DH was in the hospital for a few weeks last year, and I had to bring him food every day, because he couldn't eat the stuff they were giving him. MM10 - my baby is also breech right now. Apparently there is still time for them to turn. According to my information, 25% of babies are still breech at 28 weeks, 5% at 33 weeks, and 3-4% at full term. There are some things you can do to encourage the baby to turn, such as having your partner talk to your pelvic bone (apparently the baby is supposed to want to move towards the voice), also walking more is supposed to help, and accupuncture. If the baby is still breech at 35 weeks the doctor can try an external version, which means to use an u/s to see what s/he is doing, and to manually turn the baby from the outside. Good luck, and lets hope both our babies turn soon!

i'm a little ashamed about what i just ate for breakfast... a waffle topped with melted chocolate chips & marshmallows. what am i, twelve years old?? lol. it was really good. :-)
vickieb - 7.6 hours ago
VI-chick, i've had occasional back pain in the past couple weeks unlike anything i've ever had before so i'm pretty sure mine is pregnancy-related. fortunately it comes & goes so i'm not dealing with it all the time.
NEWMUMMYLOCKET - 7.6 hours ago
Hello week 28! hope everyone is ok? 7 months preggo already going way to quick!! xx
angelagloria - 7.6 hours ago
BERRY- JUST ASK EVERYONE TO BUY NEUTRAL COLORS OR EVEN JUST ASK FOR DIAPERS AND WIPES. YOU CAN ASK PPL TO BUY THINGS THAT ARE YELLOW OR PURPLE OR RED. NOT EVERYTHING IS IN BLUE OR PINK. MAN I AM STARTING TO FEEL OUT OF BREATHE ALL THE TIME. I HAVE HORRIBLE ASTHMA AND PREGNANCY DOESN'T HELP LOL. I'M STILL AT A 18 LBS WEIGHT GAIN I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE IT CONSIDERING I GAINED 50 WITH DS. OH WELL I AM NOT COMPLAINING
matthewsmommy10 - 7.9 hours ago
OTR... I think I'd have to go with the french toast! Yummy! :) So I had my ultrasound this morning and the lady said that Landon looks great and he's measuring normal and everything! Yay, he's 2lbs 8oz.... BUT, she also told me that as of now, he's breeched!! I know it's still early, but it's really hard not to worry!! :( Not to mention she wouldn't really tell me anything about it, she just said follow up with my Dr... I just emailed him so hopefully he can get back to me soon!
overtherainbow - 9.5 hours ago
YAY for 28 weeks, another week down in the hospital!!! I'm awake, going to order my breakfast from 'room service'...that's really what it's called. Pancakes, french toast, or a ham and cheese omlet...I can't decide. HAHA!

my fiance is pretty good in doing housework and he does it much better than quicker than me too! I've had the last few days off so today I've gotta get my place together ready for the baby shower tomorrow... have to do the spare bedroom up as 2 people are sleeping over. I am so excited!
irishgirl44 - 13.1 hours ago
i dont have anyone around me either.. my mum is in NZ with my sisters and my brother my dad is in the uk with his new gf and couldnt care less.. my bf is always working so if i dont do it no one will.. but i know there are so many women out there who do it and raise children alone.. so iam trying not to complain and just be happy that ive got a baby coming. BS sorry that this will be the birthday of your first baby youlost. but you have a new little human in your tummy and although you will never forget i hope it makes you smile a little and know that your little angel is in heaven and will protect his new brother or sister! hugs to all you girls

VI chick- I have killer back pains as well. It's so bad that many times I am limping, my mother also blame's my limping on my car accident that occured 8 years ago, but I think its the pregnancy, or the pregnancy made it worst. With my first pregnancy I had lots of hip and lower back pains but it didn't get this bad until about the 8th month of pregnancy, this time around I've been getting these pains from when I was 4 months pregnant but it's getting so bad that it sometimes makes me think something is out of place....
Berrymama - 16.1 hours ago
What can you do for a shower if you will not know the gender prior to birth? Any ideas or anyone who has done this please comment on my poll. Thank

nikki-my little guy turns 2 in a couple of weeks too, he hasn't said there is baby in his belly, but he does pick up my doppler and place it on his tummy, he even moves it around like he is looking for a heart beat, it totally cracks me up. I am so amazed every day at the things he notices and saves for later!
VI-Chick - 16.9 hours ago
Is anyone else getting killer back pain? It's been getting worse and worse for the past week. I don't know if it's just from being pregnant or from that car accident from early July.
VI-Chick - 17 hours ago
I got the paperwork yesterday to do my glucose test but haven't done it yet. I'm so busy with work that I end up working 8-5, then coming home and working here till 9. The clinic is across the street from where I work and they're insisting that I sit there for an hour, I can't go back to work for that hour. What do they think, that I'm gonna eat or drink something when I'm told not to? Anyway, I guess I'll go do it tomorrow. I'll just end up paying for it by working at home on the weekend... again. My dr. did say, though, that I've gotta stop working so much or he'll order me to stop all together by week 32. I haven't told my boss yet... we're just in the middle of negotiating my next year's salary upon my return, and the amount they'll pay for what I do while I'm off on mat leave. :0)
alottamocha - 17.5 hours ago
lindasaylou...I failed my 1 hour test also. I have to take the 3 hour test in the morning and hope I pass! I feel your pain. The day I took mine, there were 2 other ladies there that passed theirs. Hopefully it was a fluke and you don't have GD!
lindasaylou - 18.3 hours ago
I have had a very upsetting day today. I did my glucose test Tuesday and the nurse from my doctors office called today and in a very rude way said I flunked it! I immediately began to cry and haven't stopped since. I know it is a bearable thing to deal with but, I feel like it's just my luck and nothing ever goes in my favor. If I didn't have bad luck I seriously wouldn't have any luck at all. Apparently you have to be under 130 to pass. The crappy part is after I talked to her I went to my Mom's and she checked my blood sugar, it was 90 after eating a cinnamon roll and drinking a glass of orange juice. I think the test results were bullshit, there were 5 girls doing the test that morning! Now I have to do the 3 hour test which I'm freaking about because the stupid 1 hour one made me so sick. After a birthday dinner tonight with cake I checked my sugar again and it was still good. I'm so mad I'm about to scream. Had to vent.
2ndtimemommmy - 18.7 hours ago
I'm so excited! We originally weren't going to do a 3D u/s, because we can't really afford it, but I was looking at our u/s pics last night, and thinking that they really didn't turn out that well, very dark and hard to see anything. Well DS's pics are way better, and that was 8 years ago, before the 3D's came out. So I decided we need new pics, and I don't get to have another medical u/s, so I looked up the 3D ones, and gave them a call. Well it's still going to cost me $150, but they had a cancellation, and are getting us in this Saturday at 5:30! I'm so excited, I can't wait! The only thing is that DH might have to work... which would really suck for him to miss it, but they have a 48 hr cancellation policy, and if I cancel after that, I still get charged for 50% of the price, and it was already less than 48hrs when I booked it, so I'm going no matter what! Hopefully DH can come too. I'm going to have to lie to my family about it though... If they find out I'm paying for this they'll all lecture me to no end (they think they run my life, and no, they don't live with us). So I'm going to tell them that my in-laws are paying for it....
2ndtimemommmy - 18.8 hours ago
vickieb - the last update I saw on rachel was a few days ago, and at that point the baby was still inside, but there was very little fluid left and they were expecting him? to come very soon. As for the house cleaning, at my place it's usually just me, and it's so depressing. why should I have to clean up DH's dirty dishes that he leaves all over the house? So I don't... I stack them in front of his computer, or on the night table on his side of the bed, and he gets the hint eventually....
newmomeve - 19 hours ago
My husband pretty much does all the cooking and cleaning. I try to deny it, but we both know it's true. It's just that he's better at these things than I am. But he's been away all week on business, and it's just awful! I've been eating frozen fish sticks and vegetables out of a can. The laundry is piling up and the trash stinks!! Tomrrow I am going to take the afternoon off and clean the whole house thoroughly and cook him dinner so that he'll never know that I fell into such a state of disrepair without him!!!

OTR - good to hear from you again. And good thing you don't live here, hospital food is terrible here! DH was in the hospital for a few weeks last year, and I had to bring him food every day, because he couldn't eat the stuff they were giving him. MM10 - my baby is also breech right now. Apparently there is still time for them to turn. According to my information, 25% of babies are still breech at 28 weeks, 5% at 33 weeks, and 3-4% at full term. There are some things you can do to encourage the baby to turn, such as having your partner talk to your pelvic bone (apparently the baby is supposed to want to move towards the voice), also walking more is supposed to help, and accupuncture. If the baby is still breech at 35 weeks the doctor can try an external version, which means to use an u/s to see what s/he is doing, and to manually turn the baby from the outside. Good luck, and lets hope both our babies turn soon!

VI-chick, i've had occasional back pain in the past couple weeks unlike anything i've ever had before so i'm pretty sure mine is pregnancy-related. fortunately it comes & goes so i'm not dealing with it all the time.

BERRY- JUST ASK EVERYONE TO BUY NEUTRAL COLORS OR EVEN JUST ASK FOR DIAPERS AND WIPES. YOU CAN ASK PPL TO BUY THINGS THAT ARE YELLOW OR PURPLE OR RED. NOT EVERYTHING IS IN BLUE OR PINK. MAN I AM STARTING TO FEEL OUT OF BREATHE ALL THE TIME. I HAVE HORRIBLE ASTHMA AND PREGNANCY DOESN'T HELP LOL. I'M STILL AT A 18 LBS WEIGHT GAIN I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE IT CONSIDERING I GAINED 50 WITH DS. OH WELL I AM NOT COMPLAINING

OTR... I think I'd have to go with the french toast! Yummy! :) So I had my ultrasound this morning and the lady said that Landon looks great and he's measuring normal and everything! Yay, he's 2lbs 8oz.... BUT, she also told me that as of now, he's breeched!! I know it's still early, but it's really hard not to worry!! :( Not to mention she wouldn't really tell me anything about it, she just said follow up with my Dr... I just emailed him so hopefully he can get back to me soon!

YAY for 28 weeks, another week down in the hospital!!! I'm awake, going to order my breakfast from 'room service'...that's really what it's called. Pancakes, french toast, or a ham and cheese omlet...I can't decide. HAHA!

Has anyone else had burning pains around their bellie button? Is it just my stomach stretching? I didn't have it with my first

my fiance is pretty good in doing housework and he does it much better than quicker than me too! I've had the last few days off so today I've gotta get my place together ready for the baby shower tomorrow... have to do the spare bedroom up as 2 people are sleeping over. I am so excited!
irishgirl44 - 13.1 hours ago
i dont have anyone around me either.. my mum is in NZ with my sisters and my brother my dad is in the uk with his new gf and couldnt care less.. my bf is always working so if i dont do it no one will.. but i know there are so many women out there who do it and raise children alone.. so iam trying not to complain and just be happy that ive got a baby coming. BS sorry that this will be the birthday of your first baby youlost. but you have a new little human in your tummy and although you will never forget i hope it makes you smile a little and know that your little angel is in heaven and will protect his new brother or sister! hugs to all you girls

VI chick- I have killer back pains as well. It's so bad that many times I am limping, my mother also blame's my limping on my car accident that occured 8 years ago, but I think its the pregnancy, or the pregnancy made it worst. With my first pregnancy I had lots of hip and lower back pains but it didn't get this bad until about the 8th month of pregnancy, this time around I've been getting these pains from when I was 4 months pregnant but it's getting so bad that it sometimes makes me think something is out of place....

What can you do for a shower if you will not know the gender prior to birth? Any ideas or anyone who has done this please comment on my poll. Thank

nikki-my little guy turns 2 in a couple of weeks too, he hasn't said there is baby in his belly, but he does pick up my doppler and place it on his tummy, he even moves it around like he is looking for a heart beat, it totally cracks me up. I am so amazed every day at the things he notices and saves for later!
VI-Chick - 16.9 hours ago
Is anyone else getting killer back pain? It's been getting worse and worse for the past week. I don't know if it's just from being pregnant or from that car accident from early July.

I got the paperwork yesterday to do my glucose test but haven't done it yet. I'm so busy with work that I end up working 8-5, then coming home and working here till 9. The clinic is across the street from where I work and they're insisting that I sit there for an hour, I can't go back to work for that hour. What do they think, that I'm gonna eat or drink something when I'm told not to? Anyway, I guess I'll go do it tomorrow. I'll just end up paying for it by working at home on the weekend... again. My dr. did say, though, that I've gotta stop working so much or he'll order me to stop all together by week 32. I haven't told my boss yet... we're just in the middle of negotiating my next year's salary upon my return, and the amount they'll pay for what I do while I'm off on mat leave. :0)

lindasaylou...I failed my 1 hour test also. I have to take the 3 hour test in the morning and hope I pass! I feel your pain. The day I took mine, there were 2 other ladies there that passed theirs. Hopefully it was a fluke and you don't have GD!
lindasaylou - 18.3 hours ago
I have had a very upsetting day today. I did my glucose test Tuesday and the nurse from my doctors office called today and in a very rude way said I flunked it! I immediately began to cry and haven't stopped since. I know it is a bearable thing to deal with but, I feel like it's just my luck and nothing ever goes in my favor. If I didn't have bad luck I seriously wouldn't have any luck at all. Apparently you have to be under 130 to pass. The crappy part is after I talked to her I went to my Mom's and she checked my blood sugar, it was 90 after eating a cinnamon roll and drinking a glass of orange juice. I think the test results were bullshit, there were 5 girls doing the test that morning! Now I have to do the 3 hour test which I'm freaking about because the stupid 1 hour one made me so sick. After a birthday dinner tonight with cake I checked my sugar again and it was still good. I'm so mad I'm about to scream. Had to vent.
2ndtimemommmy - 18.7 hours ago
I'm so excited! We originally weren't going to do a 3D u/s, because we can't really afford it, but I was looking at our u/s pics last night, and thinking that they really didn't turn out that well, very dark and hard to see anything. Well DS's pics are way better, and that was 8 years ago, before the 3D's came out. So I decided we need new pics, and I don't get to have another medical u/s, so I looked up the 3D ones, and gave them a call. Well it's still going to cost me $150, but they had a cancellation, and are getting us in this Saturday at 5:30! I'm so excited, I can't wait! The only thing is that DH might have to work... which would really suck for him to miss it, but they have a 48 hr cancellation policy, and if I cancel after that, I still get charged for 50% of the price, and it was already less than 48hrs when I booked it, so I'm going no matter what! Hopefully DH can come too. I'm going to have to lie to my family about it though... If they find out I'm paying for this they'll all lecture me to no end (they think they run my life, and no, they don't live with us). So I'm going to tell them that my in-laws are paying for it....

vickieb - the last update I saw on rachel was a few days ago, and at that point the baby was still inside, but there was very little fluid left and they were expecting him? to come very soon. As for the house cleaning, at my place it's usually just me, and it's so depressing. why should I have to clean up DH's dirty dishes that he leaves all over the house? So I don't... I stack them in front of his computer, or on the night table on his side of the bed, and he gets the hint eventually....

My husband pretty much does all the cooking and cleaning. I try to deny it, but we both know it's true. It's just that he's better at these things than I am. But he's been away all week on business, and it's just awful! I've been eating frozen fish sticks and vegetables out of a can. The laundry is piling up and the trash stinks!! Tomrrow I am going to take the afternoon off and clean the whole house thoroughly and cook him dinner so that he'll never know that I fell into such a state of disrepair without him!!!
